Combining Recorded Tracks (Combine Function)

Use the Combine Function while the deck is stopped, playing or in pause to combine consecutive tracks on a recorded MD. This function is useful for combining several songs into a single medley, or several independently recorded portions into a single track. When you combine two tracks, the total number of tracks decreases by one and all tracks following the combined tracks are renumbered.

Example: Combining B and C

Track	1	2	3		4
number
	A	B	C			D
Combining				B and C are combined
				into one track
	1	2			3
	A	B	C			D
	- AMS ±		p	EDIT/NO			YES
		¤	0 )	á¸	p	r

1Turn AMS until the second track of the two to be combined appears.

For example, when combining tracks 3 and 4, turn AMS until 4 appears.

2Press EDIT/NO repeatedly until “Combine ?” appears in the display.

3Press YES.

“Rehearsal“ alternates with “Track ok?“ in the display. The place where the two tracks will join (i.e., the end of the first track and the beginning of the second track) repeatedly plays back and the respective track number flashes in the music calendar.

4If the track is the wrong one, press EDIT/NO or p, then start from Step 1 again.

5If the place is correct, press YES.

When the tracks have been combined, “Complete” appears for a few seconds and the total number of tracks in the music calendar decreases by one.

If both of the combined tracks have track titles, the title of the second track is erased.

To cancel the Combine Function

Press EDIT/NO or p.

You can undo a track combination

Divide the tracks again (see “Dividing Recorded Tracks” on page 22), then repeat the combine function with the correct tracks if necessary.

Note

If “Sorry” appears in the display, the tracks cannot be combined. This sometimes happens when you’ve edited the same track many times, and is due to a technical limitation of the MD system, not a mechanical error.
